Being Happy Alone

Something that came across my emails today, why is it so hard for us to learn how to be happy alone? When I say alone, I mean without a man, GASP, grandmothers around the world are shielding their face at the horror. Before we are in any serious relationship, we need to know that we can handle being alone. Handle not having anyone to call to whine and complain about your day, no one to tell that you are feeling happy today, no one to call and set up a friday night with, no one to confer with on "what are we doing tonight." There is no "we," only "I," and we need to realize that its okay and that in fact its GREAT. Being alone and dating lots of boys makes you realize what you do and dont want in a person and that you are not willing to settle for anything less than that. Im not saying there is one perfect guy out there, get real there is not, men are men and they will leave their dirty socks everywhere, they will throw down their crap and not pick it up, they will leave the cabinet doors open (okay maybe thats just mine, but it drives me nuts). It just means can we live with those flaws, and its okay we all have ours too.

When you are alone and okay with it, then thats the time. If you question things about your current relationsihp so much, thats a big sign. Its like a red flag, I mean you can question things here and there, but if you are constantly questioning your relationship. You need to realize why you are, are you bored, do you know deep down inside why, but wont admit it to yourself? When you meet someone and questions dont pop up thats a good sign, why should you be questioning their motives? Theres no reason to if you trust them and yoursef.
